Affiliate Marketing for Beginners

Choose the right products and audience, create honest reviews and tutorials, track conversions and build a transparent affiliate income system. Affiliate marketing is not about spamming links. It works when you help a specific audience make better buying decisions and earn a commission when they buy. This book explains how tracking and commissions work, how to choose a niche and products, how to evaluate programmes, how to create useful reviews and tutorials, how to distribute and measure — and how to stay honest, disclosed and safe from scams.
